  • Beyond Sequencing: The Spatial Dimensions of the Transcriptome

    Beyond Sequencing: The Spatial Dimensions of the Transcriptome





    Spatial technologies have improved our understanding of the transcriptome by providing insights into the spatial organization and interactions of cells. While next-generation sequencing (NGS) remains an important approach and is the main focus of our community, its data alone is unable to resolve unique spatial information. Jacob Stern, Director of Product Management at 10X Genomics, emphasized how numerous researchers choose to use both spatial platforms and single-cell...
